FABULOUS Color Fun For TGIF Challenge #575!

An absolutely FABULOUS color challenge is in store for you this week with our TGIF Challenge #575!  I used the A Round of Hellos Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! paired with the challenge colors which lead to a fun cheery time in my craft room making it! 

Can you guess the colors?!  Well, if not ... here you go!  Coastal Cabana, Crumb Cake, and Melon Mambo! 😍💖

And here is a pic of the focal point:

    * Stamp "Hello" circle stamp set on Vellum, emboss with white embossing powder, punch with 2 3/8" Circle Punch.

    * Stamp and fussy cut flower pieces. 

    * Make strips!  Stamp dots on Coastal Cabana.  Emboss with Soft Waves Embossing Folder on Two-Tone Melon Mambo Cardstock.  Stamp greeting on Crumb Cake with Pecan Pie ink. 

NOTE: I use the half circle stripe image from the stamp set 

Did you notice the stripes on the card base?!  That was made with this stamp from the A Round of Hellos Stamp Set:

Hope this helps!  Hope you enjoy!  Please let me know if you have any questions on anything or need help!  Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!
